The right veteran started the season on the injured list when he returned from several arm surgeries. He made the debut in rehabilitation of minor leagues. McCullers launched 50 throws in an outing for Double-A Corpus Christi on Saturday. It could be back in the next two weeks, so astros can only need one or two of their younger arms.
